Us Motors D2CA2JH 2 Hp Ac Motor 1740 Rpm 56H Odp

Product Description

The US MOTORS D2CA2JH is a single-phase, capacitor start/capacitor run AC motor built for general-purpose industrial and commercial applications. Rated at 2 horsepower and 1740 RPM, it delivers reliable performance at 60 Hz with a full-load amperage of 19.4 amps at low voltage or 9.7 amps at high voltage. The motor uses an open drip-proof (ODP) enclosure paired with a rigid mount configuration and ball bearings for consistent operation. Insulation Class B and an automatic thermal protection device help protect the winding under typical load conditions. The reversible shaft rotation and standard 56H frame make this motor a practical fit for a wide range of driven equipment.

This motor is suited for general-purpose applications where an ODP enclosure is appropriate — environments that are reasonably clean and protected from direct water exposure. The 56H rigid-mount frame is a common standard in light industrial, agricultural, and commercial mechanical systems. The shaft measures 0.625 inches in diameter and 1.875 inches in length. With a 1.15 service factor, the motor can handle moderate intermittent overloads. Licensed electricians and mechanical contractors typically handle installation and wiring in accordance with applicable NEC requirements.

Key Features

• 2 HP output at 1740 nameplate RPM, 60 Hz single-phase power
• Capacitor start/capacitor run design for strong starting torque and efficient running performance
• ODP enclosure suitable for protected indoor and sheltered outdoor environments
• Ball bearing construction for reduced friction and extended service life
• Reversible motor rotation for flexible installation orientation
• Automatic thermal overload protection to guard against winding damage
• 1.15 service factor allows moderate continuous overload capacity

Compatibility

The D2CA2JH is cross-referenced with Dayton part number 4K107. Designed as a general-purpose ODP rigid-mount replacement motor for standard 56H frame applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician or qualified mechanical contractor in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC). Disconnect and lock out all power to the driven equipment before mounting or wiring the motor. Verify supply voltage and wiring configuration match the motor nameplate before energizing. Confirm that the driven load is properly aligned and coupled to the shaft before startup.
